the biden administration wants to see made permanent. so, i think this is part of building that for them. and the questions are whether or not they actually get there, but also how the execution of it goes. so, that's how you saw president biden say he's tapping gene sperling, this long-time democratic economic aide to oversee the spending here. he was talking about how when he oversaw the stimulus bill in 2009 amid the great recession, how crucial it was to just be on the phone, have these conversations at a granular level to make sure there is no fraud or abuse or mis-spending. i think that's the next big tactic for them to go after because, of course, republicans are going to be watching very closely for any kind of a misstep and if they haven't properly communicated it. >> be cautious, fullcourt press, that's number one. number two, what's the story out of the cdc today? we're getting new reporting that some of the covid guidelines put in place by the trump administration wasn't rooted in science. >> reporter: yes, which is not entirely surprising if you were paying attention to the trump administration's response. it was often something we would be reporting, we would ask the white house about, they would deny it, and then former president trump would later concede he had, for example, pressured the fda to speed up vaccines, things of that nature. now we're hearing from the cdc spokesperson that some of that guidance that came out when former president trump was in office was not always at the best -- the best reflection of the science and the data that they had. oftentimes it was limited or vague because of undue influence, they said. another aspect, brooke, is some of the documents they say that came out that had cdc approval on them weren't actually authored by the cdc. of course, that is raising a lot of questions because people trust the cdc as an institution. even people who may not have liked former president trump still look to the cdc. so, that's why, of course, this may not be surprising, but it is still stunning to see the cdc is now saying, yes, this happened. >> yeah. wow. kaitlan, thank you for all of that. i want to come back to your first point on this legislation and selling all of this to the american people. here's a quote, checks and shots. that is the message the white house wants to put out. and besides this road tour, the biden administration is about to roll out a massive ad campaign to convince more americans to get the vaccine. cases and deaths in the u.s. are still dropping, but as more states open up, more states don't make you wear a mask, the fear about a new surge is also real. the nation's top health officials are warning americans to stay vigilant, to wear your mask, stay socially distant, but that warning comes as travelers broke a tsa pandemic era record and thousands of spring breakers are crowding beaches both in texas and in florida. cnn's amar walker has that story. >> reporter: over the weekend, spring breakers packing beaches and crowding restaurants and bars in south florida. >> we have too many people coming. we have too many people coming who are just acting out. and we have covid at the same time. it's almost a triple threat. >> reporter: 5.2 million people have traveled since thursday. that number looms large for experts as they worry about a potential fourth wave of the virus. >> we're just starting to turn the corner. the data is turning in the right direction but where this goes is dependent on we all do what must be done to protect sxoursz others. >> reporter: with mask mandates being lifted in some states, tensions are running high. >> to take it this far, to actually wish harm on somebody or even death over an opinion, that's taking it way too far. >> reporter: a san antonio restaurant owner targeted by vandals, anti-asian graffiti sprayed on his restaurant after he spoke about governor abbott's decision to lift the mask mandate. cdc shows vaccine efforts have sped up with 1 in 5 americans now having received at least one shot of the covid-19 vaccine. the pace of vaccinations picking up with more than 5.93 million doses administered this weekend alone, an increase of 11% from last weekend. a total of 107 million vaccine doses have been administered in the u.s. more than 11% of the population is now fully vaccinated. adding to the progress, a former fda commissioner says scientific evidence suggests that asymptomatic infection and transmission drastically decreases with the vaccine. >> if that's the case, the vaccine creates what we call dead-end hosts. meaning people will no longer be able to transmit the infection. >> reporter: as of today, teachers joining those eligible to receive the vaccine all across the country. the full reopening of schools remains a state-by state, city by city decision. the cdc is renewing data to see if it might revise guidelines to change social distancing in schools from six feet to three. dr. fauci tells cnn if the cdc, indeed, updates the physical distancing rules in schools, it won't be very long before the guidance comes down. now, the cdc, according to a federal official, reviewed some dated that, including a study that showed no significant difference in the rates of covid-19 at the massachusetts public schools where three-feet distancing was implemented versus six feet. here in georgia we are at a vaccination site in gwyneth county and as of today, georgians over the age of 55 and older, and anyone with high-risk conditions 16 and over are now eligible for a vaccine. brooke? >> that's great in georgia and also super interesting about the potential to go from six to three. i talked to the doctor about that. thank you about that. dr. lena winn, a cnn legal analyst and former baltimore health commissioner. welcome. let me start with the news out of the white house this afternoon, how they are preparing for a potential fourth surge. my question is, is it preventable or is it inevitable? >> i don't think that anything in the course of this pandemic, brooke, has been inevitable. it's a combination of the actions the federal government should be taking and the actions that we as individuals can be taking. we are now at a very high rate of vaccination, which is fantastic. we know there is a lot of immunity in the community just from people who have recovered from coronavirus as well. that is blunting some of the effect of people loosening up, loosening restrictions and letting loose and letting down their guard. but i also think we're at a really precipitous point here. that we could go in either direction. and what happens now is really up to us and whether we keep masking and avoiding indoor gatherings, as we should be, to the point we're vaccinated. >> immunity in the community, i like that. what about the point about the six feet to three feet. dr. fauci saying the cdc is looking at this new study that shows social distancing measures could be just as effective as three feet. do you see a scenario where that allows school five days a week sghen. >> i do. i really hope that that is the goal for the fall. that we have to have our kids back in-person full time at that point. and the only way we can do that is if we do come to three-feet distancing, because a lot of schools aren't able to open if they have to keep six-foot distancing, i think the key the cdc needs to re-evaluate is what is the difference vaccination makes? if the teachers and parents are vaccinated, can vaccination, in essence, replace distancing? can you have vaccination and mask wearing and maybe even testing? if you do all these things, do you still need the six-foot distance? >> isn't three feet acceptable in most schools now? >> there is the one study in massachusetts that shows that when mask wearing is done all the time, that three feet versus six feet is the same, but i think we need to have a lot more studies and also looking at students of different ages and also there are other factors, too, including are masks worn the entire time? do you have good ventilation in these classrooms? what about good testing and contact tracing? i think these need to factor in together but we need to see vaccination as the additional layer that the cdc guidelines have currently not put in as a layer for what it can replace. >> got it. here's something else from the cdc, we just learned of the review of the cdc guidance and it learned some of the agency's guidance during the trump administration was not grounded in science and free from undue influence. how much do you think that sets us back as a country? >> well, it's awful but i don't think it's shocking. we saw so many examples in the last year under the trump administration of guidance that was edited. i want to say that you can have a public policy that weighs public health and other components, and maybe the policy is not driven only by public health, but you can't have a government that is revising the science. it's preventing scientists from speaking up and telling the truth. and i think that really has hurt the efforts because at some point it's up to the american people to protect ourselves. but if we don't know how to do that because the information that we're getting is censored and against science, i mean, we're talking about the cost of preventable deaths that may have happened because of this. >> last question for you, just looking ahead to people wanting to go on spring break. the cdc is pleading with the public not to stop taking precautions, you know, make sure you social distance, wear your mask. not a lot of that is happening in some of our nation's beaches during spring break. how dangerous is it? and is there a way to spring break safely? >> i think it's important for the cdc and for all of us in public health to give guidance that's practical. that meets people where they are. for people already on spring break, you can't tell them, don't go. we should say, be outdoors as much as possible. >> look at these pictures. dr. wen, look at all these people walking around miami beach, some of them in masks, some of them not. it's crowds of people. >> i know. and i am very concerned about that because as much as we want to be on spring break, the virus is not on spring break. there's a level of thinking. people are like, let me go somewhere else and vacation there. things are open so it must be safe. that's not true. you can definitely still get -- acquire coronavirus that way and bring back coronavirus to your community. one more plea for spring breakers, just hang in there, try to not increase the risk of infection. also, when you come home, quarantine and then get tested because you don't want to be spreading it in your community. >> dr. wen, thank you so much. new calls today for the new york governor andrew cuomo to resign, but they're not coming from president biden, from house speaker nancy pelosi or even half of new york voters, according to a new poll. we'll talk about that. after an intense effort, police have finally made two arrests in the assault on a capitol police officer, brian sicknick. we have new details. republican senator ron johnson under fire again. this time for claiming he wasn't afraid of the violent capitol hill rioters because, as he says, they quote, love the country and they were not affiliated with antifa or black lives matter. you're watching cnn. i'm brooke baldwin. w liberty mus your car insurance so you only pay for what you need?

>> well, brooke, these are charges against these two men. their names are julian khater and george tanios. they're facing nine counts in total, including conspiracy and assault against a federal officer. according to prosecutors, there were three police officers, including officer sicknick, another u.s. capitol police officer and a metro police officer from washington, they were all on the line at the capitol when they were being assaulted by this krcrowd. according to the fbi, these two men used a spray, a chemical irritant to spray into the faces of these officers. i'll read you a part of what the affidavit says. its officers sicknick, edwards and chapman standing within a few feet of khater react one by one to something striking them in the face. the officers immediately retreat from the line, bring their hands to their faces and rush to find water to wash out their eyes. one of these men, tanios just made an appearance in court in west virginia where he lives. they'll be facing charges here in washington. we expect to see them here where they're finally going to expect to make their pleas in this case. but, brooke, these are obviously just one of many of the assaults we've seen on video. the fbi has been trying to round up all of the people responsible for these crimes. one last thought. you'll notice that these men are not charged with murder. that's in part, i'm told, by officials, you know, they still have not been able to get a medical examiner finding that ties what happened to officer sicknick to what happened there on those videos. >> got it. i was wondering. you know, we were waiting for the day when these arrests would come in connection to this officer. there you go. evan perez, thank you for the update very much. >> thank you. the list of democrats calling for the resignation of new york governor andrew cuomo is growing as he faces multiple allegations of sexual harassment and unwanted advances. and president biden is commenting for the first time, although he stopped short of saying the governor should step down. >> do you think governor andrew cuomo should resign? >> i think the investigation is under way and we should see what it brings us. >> house speaker nancy pelosi is also saying she wants to wait and see the results of this independent investigation led by new york attorney general latisha james. >> i do think the women deserve to hear the results of these investigations as does the governor. >> but you're not calling on him to resign right now? >> i think we should see the results of -- but he may decide. hopefully this result will be soon, and what i'm saying is the governor should look inside his heart. he loves new york, to see if he can govern effectively. >> governor cuomo has apologized for, quote, making anyone feel uncomfortable, but has maintained that he, quote, never touched anyone inappropriately. cnn's chief congressional correspondent dana bash is with me. you heard it, president biden and also speaker pelosi, two of the most powerful people in the entire democratic party, are not joining this chorus of people calling on cuomo to resign. what do you think is stopping them? >> well, a couple things. one is, if you listen very closely to the way that the speaker answered that question, she said that, you know, she -- these are my words, not hers, but she wants there to be due process, meaning she wants the attorney general of new york, that investigation to play out. but she also said a couple of times that governor cuomo should look inside his heart and see if he can still lead new york. that is about as much of a nudge, without saying he should resign, as you can define and to come up with, especially from somebody like speaker pelosi, who, you know, as you said, the top democrat in congress. she's now one of two of the top female democrats in the country. and so that was very interesting. the other thing, brooke, that i am hearing much more explicitly than i heard at the beginning of this whole thing when the allegations first came out against governor cuomo, this is what i'm hearing in private, i haven't heard anybody say this in public, is there are lessons that -- some of these top democrats feel they are learning from what happened with al franken and that he was basically forced to resign before the senate ethics committee got through with any investigation that they were going to do. it's a different situation for a lot of reasons when it comes to that due process, that the ethics committee is very opaque, it takes a long time. what the attorney general in new york is doing is supposedly much quicker and much more this you are row. but that is an interesting thing i'm hearing, that it is a lesson just to take a little bit more of a breath. obviously, that's not what a lot of the lawmakers and governor cuomo's fellow democrats in new york are doing. they're saying, okay, he's done, he can't govern effectively. >> the other piece that's come out in the last day, this is from "the washington post," they're reporting the new york vaccine czar, this long-time adviser to governor cuomo, is picking up the phone, calling officials around the state for the last two weeks to gauge their loyalty to the governor. art caplan from nyu is quoted as saying this, if you are in control of a vital supply of a life-saving resource like vaccines, you are carrying an enormous amount of implicit clout when you ask for political allegiance and you shouldn't be doing that anyway. dana, how is this helping their case? >> well, if it's public, like it is now, according to "the washington post" reporting, it's not at all. this is another data point in the allegations that have become the larger narrative and the larger allegations about governor cuomo, that it's not just about the sexual harassment allegations, it's about bullying, it's about a workplace that is untenable beyond the regular politics and that, you know, the sort of brass knuckle politics he is known to play. and so what this report suggests is that there is -- it's beyond that. it is -- you know, this sounds like, according to this, there's a quid pro quo that people are now feeling emboldened to make public because the governor is in a much more precarious situation. >> yep. as you pointed out, it doesn't seem like governor cuomo is stepping down any time soon. he says he wants to let this independent investigation play out. you also have -- we have new numbers today, this new poll. 50% of new yorkers, new york voters, say the governor should not immediately resign. 35% saying he should. are all of these democrats calling for him to resign, do you think they're getting ahead of their skis here or they're out of step with what new yorkers want? >> you know, it's always the question of whether these democrats, and as you said, there are so many of them now, both on the federal -- elected to congress and in the state level, saying that he should resign. there's so many different factors. there's the factor of the fact that, you know, some of them, not all of them, but some of them never got along with him to begin with. and then there's the other factor of the fact that they -- if they get out, as you said, perhaps over their skis, they won't face much backlash. that poll suggests that it's not that clear. there's more gray area there. and, remember, it's easy for people, perhaps, in the short term to forget, but a year ago, he was, for many people, not just in new york, but around the country, filling a void, a leadership void on the pandemic that people desperately wanted and needed. and that reservoir among new yorkers of support still appears to be there, given the fact that half of the people in that survey said that they don't want him to resign. >> it appears that way, doesn't it? dana bash, thank you, friend. new developments with the crisis on the southern border. the biden administration is opening another facility and calling on fema to help process the growing number of migrant children who are showing up without their parents. that number, by the way, as of sunday is more than 4,000. also this just into us, in the george floyd case, the attorney for former police officer derek chauvin is asking for a continuance and change of venue. n might seem... excessive. unless... getting lost is the whole point. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ i shopped for shirts online last night ♪ ♪ and body wash, just for men ♪ ♪ now, i think we're gonna buy new shoes, again! ♪ ♪ rakuten cash back on the things all in our home ♪ ♪ rakuten i shop on rakuten rakuten ♪ with sofi, i was able to condense all of my loans under one account. i was able to lower my monthly payments and feel like i'm well on my way to becoming debt free. and i have sofi to thank for that. four, five, turn, kick. and fwe got chased byl on my wathese wild coyotes!free. they were following her because she had beef jerky in her pocket.

>> yeah. well, look, it is a reminder how much culture and religious is a force in the republican party. three-quarters of republican voters in polls say discrimination against whites is now as big a problem as discrimination against minorities. but i think just as revealing as the overt racism is the first half of that quote that you played, where he basically says, these were law-abiding citizens. they were no threat. they would not break a law, on the day when we see the arrests and the attack on officer sicknick. but johnson's comments there, to me, are part of a continuum of a normalizing of this kind of extremist violence and a pore trailer of it as a legitimate part of the republican coalition. as i've written, the extremist wing of the gop is growing too big to fail, too big for the party to forcefully confront. you see that in the reaction of marjorie taylor greene in the white house caucus, in the willingness of so many republicans trying to sweep away the instigating of this riot. going forward, what do republican voters who don't feel -- what do they going forward? >> you and i talked about it. i really think the 2022 midterms are going to be the litmus test on this kind of stuff. i want to move on. i want to talk about new election laws from republicans that are restricting voting access in states across the country. stacey abrams talked to jake tapper about this. listen to this. >> i do absolutely agree it's racist. it is a redux of jim crow in a suit and tie. we know that the only thing that precipitated these changes, it's not that there was a question of security. in fact, the secretary of state and the governor went to great pains to assure america that georgia's elections were secure. so the only connection we can find is that more people of color voted and it changed the outcome of elections in a direction that republicans do not like. >> ron, law after law, lawsuit after lawsuit, what kind of impact will these laws have on the next election, do you think? >> potentially enormous if they are allowed to go into effect. i think what you're seeing is part of a continuum of responses with the january 6th attack at the far extreme end, but this -- these extraordinary efforts, as stacey abrams said, clearly the widest effort to suppress voting rights act since jim crow, it's part of the same continuum of republicans struggling to look for ways to maintain majority power without necessarily having majority support in a diversifying country. and if these laws are allowed to go into effect in states like georgia and arizona and texas, no question, they will have an effect. that's why i believe that the biggest choice democrats face in these next two years is whether to end or curtail the filibuster in the senate to allow them to pass the senate version of hr-1, which would establish a nationwide floor of voting rights, access to on-demand absentee balloting, that would override many of these state laws. if they don't, they may lose unified government in 2022 as a result of these state laws and never again for many years have an opportunity to prevent this kind of systematic suppression, which i think is in all likelihood going to continue without some kind of federal intervention. >> ron, i spy with my little eye that book over your left shoulder, "rock me on the water." i'm talking ron brownstein's latest book. >> and jackson browne. >> we'll get a little rock 'n' roll on the show next tuesday. >> absolutely. >> ron brownstein, thank you so much. daylight saving time is back. we know a lot of you have a lot of feelings about this. it is a topic that even unites republicans and democrats, if you believe that. we'll talk about the push to stop changing the clocks next. everyone. everywhere. where everyone is included. where everyone has access to information, education, opportunity. ♪ ♪ ♪ when everyone and everything is connected. that's really beautiful. anything is possible. good morning. cisco. the bridge to possible.

what do you say to them? >> well, that's why i think it's good to have daylight savings time for spring, summer and fall when you don't have this problem in the morning. the morning -- the sunrises in the middle of summer are so early that most people sleep past sunrise anyway, so it doesn't matter if you move the sunrise back an hour, but if you move the sunrise back an hour in the middle of winter, you would get very late sunrises, and in new york, chicago, san francisco, for example, you'd have 8:30 sunrises and in places like detroit, indianapolis, minneapolis, seattle, you'd have sunrises at 9:00 a.m., and in many places in the country you'd have sunrises 9:30 and later. a lot of people would get up in the pitch dark, go to school and work in the pitch dark and send their kids to school on dark roads and walking through dark city streets in the pitch dark so it would be colder. the coldest hour of the day is often the hour right before sunrise, and so people would be getting up in that hour and especially in the colder parts of the country. there would even be another negative. >> you're quite convincing, david, because i was prepared to fight you to the nail on this, but listen, i kind of understand the compromise. nevertheless, this is come up again. we'll see what the lawmakers are able to do about it. thanks for having you on. >> thanks a lot, brooke. our breaking news coveragep continues today. results of the cdc review made under the trump administration. what we're learning about recommendations that were actually not grounded in science. stay here. ?
